Infections Coming Back

Hi. I'm new here. I have Autism and anxiety, and I'm not sure if it's linked but I get ill a lot especially with infections in my throat and mouth. I've had what I guess is tonsillitis for like 5 months now, it's never ending. I take over the counter stuff, throat soreness goes but the tonsils and back of my mouth remain red and enflamed never goes. I do get low and I read this can cause you to get sick but it is annoying. I feel constantly unwell with this, have awful headache and keep getting dizzy and am terrified I'll end up in hospital. Doctors and hospital are my biggest fears and I'll avoid them at all costs.

  • Jess.  I'm sorry to say that, from what you have said (notably the dizziness) you really do need to get yourself in front of a doctor.

    If you address this ASAP then you are likely to have less time under the supervision of, and treatment by, doctors.

    Your anxiety will diminish when you have started to address your problem and it is perfectly foreseeable that the solution (if addressed ASAP) will be a simple one.

    Please be brave and get this looked at - it obviously isn't going to go away by itself.

    Good luck.
